PT Brainum: Blog

Thanks to the hard work of my editor Old Rotorhead, part 4 has been edited and submitted. It should be up shortly. If you were waiting for the edit, this is it. Only minor story additions.

The voting was fascinating. 40% edit first, 40% story now. 20% some combination of: it's your story do what you want/ post then edit and repost.

I have an editor now, and part 3 and 4 are expected to be edited in two weeks or so. Since i posted part 1 and 2 in December, i thought I'd do part 3 and 4 in January, five and six in February, and seven and eight in March.

That's subject to change of course, what isn't.

So here's my quandry. The score for the story is going up as new parts are released. Is it because the loyal readers of the series are reading and voting, or is it getting better?
Second question, are you willing to wait on editing or do you want the new parts as soon as they are finished? What's more important?
I'm currently writing part 7, as 4-6 are complete but unedited.
Thanks for feedback

I've just posted part 3. It had trouble that needed fixing, but part 4 and 5 are complete, and I'm editing them while working part 6. It continues!

It's pretty amazing I posted a request for help and got more messages than I've ever gotten from a story. I've deleted that blog post, so i don't keep getting answers.
The question was, when submitting .txt file how do you preserve italics. The answer is:
_italics_
*Bold*
_*bold italics*_
And this information was in the authors section the whole time, i just couldn't find it at midnight last night, too tired i guess.
With that solved, part 2 of John the genius will soon be posted.
